Anyone have experience with the Visual Studio SDK and can help point me in the right direction to solving this problem odd behavior?

enter image description here

To summarize the screenshot, I have Visual Studio 2010 installed (no it's not a new installation) but the SDK installer seems to think I don't.

Yes I've tried more than once and yes I closed Visual Studio before trying to install the SDK.
